Table 2.
Mean values of end-diastolic and end-systolic volumes (EDV and ESV) and corresponding ejection fractions (EF) for the modalities MR, and PET reconstructed with the three methods of cardiac ECG gating: STD: standard ECG gating method, STD-BR: standard - beat rejection ECG gating method, FW: fixed width ECG gating method
| Modality | EDV (mL) | ESV (mL) | EF (%) |
|---|---|---|---|
| MR | 160 ± 35 | 82 ± 33 | 50 ± 14 |
| PET-STD | 140 ± 41* | 80 ± 33 | 43 ± 10* |
| PET-STD-BR | 145 ± 40* | 78 ± 35 | 47 ± 11 |
| PET-FW | 145 ± 43* | 81 ± 37 | 45 ± 10* |
*Stands for statistically significant differences against MR values (P value < .05)
